America-loving rockstar Kid Rock kicked off his 2022 tour in Indiana last week, and to mark the occasion, former President Donald Trump sent Rock and his fans a very special message.

Trump’s Message To Kid Rock
The New York Post reported that Kid Rock played a message from Trump before he took the stage at the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana.
“Hello, everyone. I love you all,” Trump can be seen saying in the video. “I know you’re having a great time at the Kid Rock concert tonight. Quite frankly, he’s amazing. All of you in attendance are truly the backbone of our great country. Hard-working, God-fearing rock-and-roll patriots.”
“Bob is truly one of the greatest entertainers of our time,” Trump continued, referring to Kid Rock by his birth name of Robert Ritchie. “Not the best golfer by any means, his golf game could use a little work, but a great, great entertainer, and that’s why you’re there.”
“Let’s all continue to love one another, fight for our God-given freedoms, and most of all, let’s make America rock again,” Trump concluded he put on a red MAGA-style hat that read “Make America Rock Again.”

Once the video came to an end, Kid Rock took the stage to sing his anti-Joe Biden song “We The People,” which includes a “Let’s Go Brandon” chorus.

Kid Rock has long been a supporter of Trump, telling Fox News host Tucker Carlson last month that there is “no comparison” between the former president and Biden. He went so far as to say that he is impressed by “how sharp [Trump] is, it’s incredible.”
“You can see how you watch a Joe Biden interview and the Trump interview,” Kid Rock said. “You are just like there is no comparison. And yeah, Trump, he speaks off the cuff. Sometimes you get it wrong. But I’d way hear someone get it wrong once in a while. At some level, everything was scripted. I’ve stood next to him in the White House with the prepared notes and watch and read one sentence and like, let’s go. You are like, this is awesome.”
Kid Rock And Trump Are Friends
Kid Rock and Trump are personal friends who have spent time together golfing in the past. While some celebrities have been “cancelled” for even associating with Trump, Kid Rock isn’t afraid of this happening to him.
“I’m not in bed with any big corporate things. At the end of the day, there’s nobody I’m beholden to. No record companies, no corporate interests, no nothing. You can’t cancel me,” Kid Rock said last month. “I love it when they try.”

This Detroit rocker is one entertainer who is not afraid at all to tell it like it is, so it’s not surprising that Trump is such a big fan of his.
God bless Trump for taking the time to acknowledge Kid Rock and his fans. What an incredible way to kick off the Bad Reputation tour!
